End-of-life 1U enterprise next-generation firewall, the fiber-dense model of the 100E series with eight GE SFP slots, built on Fortinet's NP6lite and CP9 security processors with 7.4 Gbps firewall throughput and 2 million concurrent sessions. The FortiGate 100EF hardware is no longer sold — FortiGuard and FortiCare renewals remain available below, and the FortiGate 100F is the direct currently-shipping replacement.


The FortiGate 100EF hardware has reached end of life and is no longer sold. These FortiGuard and FortiCare renewals keep an installed unit licensed and supported. Licensing is delivered electronically worldwide.

The FortiGate 100EF is an end-of-life 1U enterprise next-generation firewall from Fortinet's 100E series. Built on the NP6lite and CP9 security processors, it delivers 7.4 Gbps of firewall throughput, 360 Mbps NGFW, 250 Mbps of threat protection and 2,000,000 concurrent sessions over eight GE SFP slots plus eight GE RJ45 ports. The 100EF reached end of life, so the hardware is no longer sold; you can still renew its FortiGuard security services and FortiCare support to keep an installed unit protected, using the renewal bundles below.
When you are ready to replace it, the currently-shipping FortiGate 100F is the direct successor — roughly 2.7x the firewall throughput and 4x the threat protection of the 100E in the same 1U form factor — and the FortiGate 120G steps up further for growing campus and branch sites. See the upgrade path comparison below.

The FortiGate 100EF ships as a 1U rack unit with mounting ears included. Populate its GE SFP slots with the right 1 GbE transceiver for your fiber or copper runs.
No. The FortiGate 100EF (FG-100EF) has reached end of life and the hardware is no longer sold. You can still renew FortiGuard security services and FortiCare support for an installed unit, and we can quote the current FortiGate 100F as a direct replacement.
The FortiGate 100F is the direct, currently-shipping replacement — same 1U form factor with about 20 Gbps firewall throughput and 1 Gbps of threat protection, roughly 2.7x and 4x the FortiGate 100EF. For more throughput, 10 GE and higher session capacity, step up to the FortiGate 120G.
Yes, while the model is in its renewal window. Choose a FortiGuard + FortiCare renewal bundle (Enterprise, UTP or ATP) above, or renew individual FortiGuard services and FortiCare support. Licensing is delivered electronically worldwide.
The 100E series delivers 7.4 Gbps firewall throughput, 500 Mbps IPS, 360 Mbps NGFW, 250 Mbps threat protection and 4 Gbps IPsec VPN, with 2,000,000 concurrent sessions and 30,000 new sessions per second, accelerated by Fortinet’s NP6lite and CP9 security processors.
The FortiGate 100EF is the fiber model of the 100E series: it provides eight GE SFP slots plus eight GE RJ45 ports, where the standard FortiGate 100E provides fourteen GE RJ45 ports and two GE RJ45/SFP shared-media pairs. Security performance is identical.
